Ok, thanks. The use of the passive tense kind-of leaves open the question: was any of the patch produced using Claude, or was it all your own work? My understanding of the AI policy is that changes outside of the testsuite need to be authored entirely by a human (unless the patch is trivial). In other words, it's ok (AIUI) for someone to use AI to detect flaws and create testcases for those flaws, and for that person to then go off and write a fix without the help of AI. But using AI to write the fix is out of bounds. I realise the policy somewhat incentivises people to lie about the use of AI, but... Richard
